Great suit, but does anyone think it might be too shiny, esp for a very conservative firm?
It’s just chino–the light is strange on it. I have it in khaki. There’s an a-line skirt that goes with it that is also on sale for all of you a-line lovers. I think that if you use your house charge, there’s an additional 10% off.
(can you tell I used to work at banana?!)
i meant the light is strange in the picture–IRL there is no real sheen on the fabric! :)
Be forewarned – the jacket is on the shorter side. For those with long arms or a long torso, try the tall.
I got a mailer the other day — use your banana charge and take 25% off your entire purchase. With that promo, this suit is a steal.
so, would it be 55% off altogether if you use your card?
no, the 25% thing ended this past Sunday! I think you still get 10% off on top of the discount if you you use the charge though!
I have this suit and really like it for the summer – it breathes really well and the fabric transitions nicely from day to night. And the a-line skirt is really flattering.
